Combining sculptural simplicity with emotional depth, the work exemplifies de boer’s distinctive ability to distill the human form into a timeless and universal presence. The bronze head, measuring 42 cm high , is characterized by its serene expression, elongated proportions, and softly modelled features. Eyes remain concealed beneath flowing forms that suggest hair or a veil, creating an air of mystery and introspection. The subtle smile and lowered gaze evoke a sense of calm reflection, while the beautifully textured surface reveals the artist’s hand through delicate marks and variations in the patina. Finished in a rich green-bronze patina, the sculpture possesses a remarkable depth and luminosity. The dark stone pedestal elevates the work both physically and visually, transforming it into a truly architectural object with a commanding overall height of 125 cm .
